The Lancia D24, a technical revolution
Developed in 1953, the Lancia D24 represented the pinnacle of the technical expertise of the Turin brand in motorsport. This racing barquette was equipped with a 3.3-liter V6 engine developing approximately 260 horsepower, a remarkable power for its time. Its avant-garde design incorporated innovations such as the De Dion transmission and a particularly rigid tubular chassis.
The D24 was distinguished by its fluid and aerodynamic lines, the result of collaboration between Lancia engineers and coachbuilder Pinin Farina. Its low profile and sleek silhouette gave it a unique appearance on the tracks, while its characteristic red livery made it one of the most beautiful racing cars of its time.
Despite a relatively brief career, the D24 achieved several prestigious victories, notably at the Mille Miglia and Targa Florio, confirming Lancia's technical excellence in the field of motorsport before the brand temporarily withdrew from racing.
Lancia in the 1950s
In the early 1950s, Lancia was experiencing a golden period under the leadership of Gianni Lancia, son of founder Vincenzo Lancia. The brand enjoyed an exceptional reputation for its technical innovations and commitment to competition, particularly in Italian endurance races where it excelled against rivals Ferrari and Maserati.
The history of Lancia, founded in 1906 in Turin, was already rich with numerous innovations. The brand revolutionized the automobile with creations like the Lambda in the 1920s, the first car with a monocoque structure, and the Aprilia in the 1930s, a pioneer of aerodynamics. This culture of innovation naturally found its way into its racing cars like the D24.
However, the high costs of competition and increasing financial difficulties would soon force Lancia to reconsider its priorities, marking the end of a golden era for the brand in motorsport.
One of the most remarkable anecdotes about the Lancia D24 concerns the tumultuous relationship between Juan Manuel Fangio and this exceptional car. The Argentine champion, accustomed to Ferraris and Maseratis, experienced a Lancia in racing for the first time during his collaboration with the Turin team in 1953.
Fangio was immediately captivated by the exceptional handling of the D24, especially its stability in fast corners and driving precision. He would later declare that this Lancia was one of the most balanced cars he had ever driven, despite its impressive power for the time.
Legend has it that during a race at the Mille Miglia in 1954, Fangio and his co-driver traveled certain sections at average speeds exceeding 180 km/h on Italian country roads, fully exploiting the potential of the D24. This performance remains one of the most celebrated feats of this legendary car.
The D24 perfectly embodied the spirit of the time, when Italian manufacturers competed in ingenuity to create rolling works of art as well as high-performance racing machines, helping to forge the legend of Italian motorsport.

Frequently Asked Questions
How to understand the scales of miniatures?
Scale indicates the reduction ratio between the real car and the miniature. For example, at 1:43 scale, each centimeter on the miniature corresponds to 43 centimeters on the real vehicle.

What scales are available?
Our model cars are mainly offered in 1/43, 1/24, 1/18 and 1/87 (HO) scales. The scale is always indicated in the product sheet.
